Khaznadar inscriptions
Punic inscriptions in Tunisia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Khaznadar inscriptions are approximately 120 Punic inscriptions, found in Carthage by Muhammad Khaznadar in the 1860s in Husainid Tunisia.
In 1869 Heinrich von Maltzan noted that Khaznadar's museum contained more than 120 Punic inscriptions (2/3 Punic and 1/3 neo-Punic) found during Khaznadar's excavations in three different points around the ruins of Carthage.[1]
A number of the inscriptions were published in 1870 by von Maltzen in his 1870 Travels in the regencies of Tunis and Tripoli,[2] and again in the following year by Julius Euting in his Punic stones.[3]
